Match Mothers & Breastfeeding Network-style peer support — family mediation for co-parenting after separation

REVIEWED BY: Sean McNamara on 2026-08-27

What this service is

OnlyMums & OnlyDads is a UK charity offering free guidance to single mothers and fathers navigating separation — including the family court process, benefits, housing and the emotional side of parenting alone.

What they offer

  • Free email advice from experienced family-law professionals via onlymumsanddads.org
  • Plain-English guides covering child arrangements, court applications, money and housing
  • Signposting to vetted local services (mediators, counsellors, solicitors)

Who it helps

Lone parents of either sex at any stage — from deciding to separate, through the C100 or divorce process, to life after orders are made.

How it fits your family court case

Use OnlyMums & OnlyDads for the whole-picture support — the court case is often the smaller part of rebuilding. Combine with our guides (C100, financial remedy, mediation) for court detail, and Citizens Advice for benefits/housing specifics.
